Miniature Score. This work was commissioned by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. It was first performed on 13th May 1998 London. This piece is based on a genuine old tune 'Maxwell's Strathspey' which the composer found in an 1824 collection of Scottish melodies, and which unfolds at the start of the piece on solo cello. Variations and a bold up-tempo to the quick dance we know as a reel ultimately yield to the magic that has been promised right at the start: the northern lights take over at the end of the piece. Its inspiration comes from a walk to a community event in Hoy Hall, during which Davies saw the lights in the sky pulsing in and out of time with the sounds coming from the hall. Duration 12 minutes. Conductor's score and orchestral parts are available on hire.

The 1712 Overture stands out in P.D.Q. Bach's oeuvre for two reasons, among others: it is by far the most programmatic instrumental piece among those by the minimeister of Wein-am-Rhein so far unearthed, and 2) its discovery has led to a revelation about the composer's father, Johann Sebastian Bach, that has exploded like a bombshell on the usually serene musicological landscape. The overture is based on an anecdote told to P.D.Q. Bach by a cousin, Peter Ulrich. Since P.U. Bach lived in Dudeldorf, only a few miles down the road from Wein-am-Rhein, he was P.D.Q.'s closest relative, and he was, in fact, one of the few members of the family who was on speaking terms with P.D.Q. The story, related to P.D.Q. (fortunately for us posterity types) in a letter, may be summarized thus: The town of Dudeldorf was founded by two brothers, Rudi and Dieter Dudel, early in the 18th century. Rudi remained mayor of the newborn burg for the rest of his long life, but Dieter had a dream of starting a musicians' colony, an entire city devoted to music, which dream, he finally decided, could be realized only in the New World. In 1712, he and several other bagpipers sailed to Boston, never to return to Germany. (Henceforth, Rudi became known as der deutscher Dudel and Dieter as the Yankee Dudel). Unfortunately, the head of the Boston Musicians' Guild had gotten wind of Dudel's plans, and Wilhelm Wiesel (pron. VEE-zle), known none too affectionately around town as Wiesel the Weasel, was not about to share what few gigs there were in colonial America with more foreigners and outside agitators. He and his cronies were on hand to meet Dudel's boat when it pulled into Boston Harbor; they intended to prevent the newcomers' disembarkation, but Dudel and his companions managed to escape to the other side of the bay in a dinghy, landing with just enough time to rent a carriage and horses before hearing the sound of The Weasel and his men, who had had to come around the long way. The Germans headed West, with the Bostonians in furious pursuit. soon the city had been left far behind, and by midnight so had the pursuers; Dieter Dudel decided that it was safe for him and his men to stop and sleep until daybreak. When they awoke, they found that they were in a beautiful landscape of low, forested mountains and pleasant fields, warmed by the brilliant morning sun and serenaded by an entrancing variety of birds. Here, Dudel thought, her is where I will build my colony. The immigrants continued down the road at a leisurely pace until they came upon a little church, all by itself in the countryside, from which there suddenly emanated the sounds of a pipe organ. At this point, the temptation to quote from P.U. Bach's letter to P.D.Q. cannot be resisted: They went inside and, after listening to the glorious music for a while, introduced themselves to the organist. And who do you think it was? Are you ready for this -- it was your old man! Hey, no kidding -- you know, I'm sure, that your father was the guy to get when it came to testing new organs, and whoever had that one in Massachusetts built offered old Sebastian a tidy sum to go over there and check it out. The unexpected meeting with J.S. Bach and his sponsors was interrupted by the sound of horse hooves, as the dreaded Wiesel and his men thundered on to the scene. They had been riding all night, however, and they were no spring chickens to start with, and as soon as they reached the church they all dropped, exhausted, to the ground. The elated Germans rang the church bells and offered to buy everyone a beer at the nearest tavern. There they were taught, and joined in singing, what might be called the national anthem of the New World. The melody of this pre-revolutionary patriotic song is still remembered (P.D.Q. Bach quotes it, in the bass instruments, near the end of the overture), but is words are now all but forgotten: Freedom, of thee we sing, Freedom e'er is our goal; Death to the English King, Long live Rock and Ross. The striking paucity of biographical references to Johann Sebastian Bah during the year 1712 can now be explained: he was abroad for a significant part of that year, testing organs in the British Colonies. That this revelation has not been accepted as fact by the musicological establishment is no surprise, since it means that a lot of books would have to be rewritten. The members of that establishment haven't even accepted the existence of P.D.Q. Bach, one of whose major works the 1712 Overture certainly is. It is also a work that shows Tchaikowsky up as the shameless plagiarizer that some of us have always known he was. The discovery of this awesome opus was made possible by a Boston Pops Centennial Research Commission; the first modern performance took place at the opening concert of the 100th anniversary season of that orchestra, under the exciting but authentic direction of John Williams.

On letting go(Concerning the selection of the texts) In the selection of the texts, I have allowed myself to be motivated and inspired by the concept of 'letting go'. This appears to me to be one of the essential aspects of dying, but also of life itself. We humans cling far too strongly to successful achievements, whether they have to do with material or ideal values, or relationships of all kinds. We cannot and do not want to let go, almost as if our life depended on it. As we will have to practise the art of letting go at the latest during our hour of death, perhaps we could already make a start on this while we are still alive. Tagore describes this farewell with very simple but strikingly vivid imagery: 'I will return the key of my door'. I have set this text for tenor solo. Here I imagine, and have correspondingly noted in a certain passage of the score, that the protagonist finds himself as though 'in an ocean' of voices in which he is however not drowning, but immersing himself in complete relaxation. The phenomenon of letting go is described even more simply and tersely in Psalm 90, verse 12: 'So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom'. This cannot be expressed more plainly.I have begun the requiem with a solo boy's voice singing the beginning of this psalm on a single note, the note A. This in effect says it all. The work comes full circle at the culmination with a repeat of the psalm which subsequently leads into a resplendent 'lux aeterna'. The intermediate texts of the Requiem which highlight the phenomenon of letting go in the widest spectrum of colours originate on the one hand from the Latin liturgy of the Messa da Requiem (In Paradisum, Libera me, Requiem aeternam, Mors stupebit) and on the other hand from poems by Joseph von Eichendorff, Hermann Hesse, Rabindranath Tagore and Rainer Maria Rilke.All texts have a distinctive positive element in common and view death as being an organic process within the great system of the universe, for example when Hermann Hesse writes: 'Entreiss dich, Seele, nun der Zeit, entreiss dich deinen Sorgen und mache dich zum Flug bereit in den ersehnten Morgen' ['Tear yourself way , o soul, from time, tear yourself away from your sorrows and prepare yourself to fly away into the long-awaited morning'] and later: 'Und die Seele unbewacht will in freien Flugen schweben, um im Zauberkreis der Nacht tief und tausendfach zu leben' ['And the unfettered soul strives to soar in free flight to live in the magic sphere of the night, deep and thousandfold']. Or Joseph von Eichendorff whose text evokes a distant song in his lines: 'Und meine Seele spannte weit ihre Flugel aus. Flog durch die stillen Lande, als floge sie nach Haus' ['And my soul spread its wings wide. Flew through the still country as if homeward bound.']Here a strong romantically tinged occidental resonance can be detected which is however also accompanied by a universal spirit going far beyond all cultures and religions. In the beginning was the sound Long before any sort of word or meaningful phrase was uttered by vocal chords, sounds, vibrations and tones already existed. This brings us back to the music. Both during my years of study and at subsequent periods, I had been an active participant in the world of contemporary music, both as percussionist and also as conductor and composer. My early scores had a somewhat adventurous appearance, filled with an abundance of small black dots: no rhythm could be too complicated, no register too extreme and no harmony too dissonant. I devoted myself intensely to the handling of different parameters which in serial music coexist in total equality: I also studied aleatory principles and so-called minimal music.I subsequently emigrated and took up residence in Spain from where I embarked on numerous travels over the years to India, Africa and South America. I spent repeated periods during this time as a resident in non-European countries. This meant that the currents of contemporary music swept past me vaguely and at a great distance. What I instead absorbed during this period were other completely new cultures in which I attempted to immerse myself as intensively as possible.I learned foreign languages and came into contact with musicians of all classes and styles who had a different cultural heritage than my own: I was intoxicated with the diversity of artistic potential.Nevertheless, the further I distanced myself from my own Western musical heritage, the more this returned insistently in my consciousness.The scene can be imagined of sitting somewhere in the middle of the Brazilian jungle surrounded by the wailing of Indians and out of the blue being provided with the opportunity to hear Beethoven's late string quartets: this can be a heart-wrenching experience, akin to an identity crisis. This type of experience can also be described as cathartic. Whatever the circumstances, my 'renewed' occupation with the 'old' country would not permit me to return to the point at which I as an audacious young student had maltreated the musical parameters of so-called contemporary music. A completely different approach would be necessary: an extremely careful approach, inching my way gradually back into the Western world: an approach which would welcome tradition back into the fold, attempt to unfurl the petals and gently infuse this tradition with a breath of contemporary life.Although I am aware that I will not unleash a revolution or scandal with this approach, I am nevertheless confident as, with the musical vocabulary of this Requiem, I am travelling in an orbit in which no ballast or complex structures will be transported or intimated: on the contrary, I have attempted to form the message of the texts in music with the naivety of a 'homecomer'.

Jeder Kultur wohnt eine Moral inne, welche die menschlichen Handlungen bewertet und in zwei Kategorien einteilt: gut/schlecht, positiv/negativ usw. Der Titel HARTO - zu deutsch: satt, uberdrussig - bezieht sich auf das Unbehagen, das diese dichotomische Auffassung hervorruft: eine Auffassung, die gleichwohl in uns verwurzelt ist und gerade darum den Prozess Wahrnehmung Ausserung Kenntnis beeinflusst, ihm zugehort. Tatsachlich wird das musikalische Phanomen dualistisch konzipiert: Klang = Ton/Gerausch; Tonhohenanordnung = Konsonanz/Dissonanz, tonal/atonal; Struktur = symmetrischer Bau (Vordersatz/Nachsatz), das scholastische Ideal des Gleichgewichts, das seinerseits eine Symmetrieachse zur Voraussetzung hat. Diese Strukturierung des Materials ergibt sich aus dem fast ausschliesslichen Interesse des Komponisten an den expressiven Moglichkeiten des musikalischen Apparats. Die Motivation des Komponierens aus dem Drang, etwas Inneres ausdrucken zu mussen, erscheint mir jedoch heute der Grundlage zu entbehren und folglich auch unnotig. Die letztliche Daseinsberechtigung dieser Motivation liegt in der dualistischen Vorstellung, die beim Menschen zwischen Leib und Seele unterscheidet. Ein Bluff, Produkt kleinlicher Disputiersucht. Eine Analyse auf der Basis empirischer Logik stellt fest, dass es keine Seele gibt, sondern ein Nervensystem mit bestimmten Fahigkeiten, und dass nichts auszudrucken ist, weil Musik die Empfindungen des Komponisten nicht wiedergeben kann. sondern lediglich unbestimmte Eindrucke im Horer erzeugt. Da aber jede bewusste Wahrnehmung Erkenntnis ist, ware es nun die Aufgabe des Komponisten, Musik mit diesem Ziel, das heisst: Musik als Erkenntnismittel zu schaffen. Dies alles ist der Versuch, die Erkenntnistheorie von David Hume und anderen, spateren Epistemologen auf Musik anzuwenden. Der Beitrag des Empirismus zur Erkenntnistheorie wurde zwar in der wissenschaftlichen Forschung genutzt, fand jedoch in der Kunst kaum, in der Musik keinerlei Beachtung. Warum? Vielleicht, weil in der Musik noch immer der naive, >>expressive<< Komponist vorherrscht, den das elitar-bourgeoise Publikum verlangt und dem es applaudiert. Der Einwand, dass Kunst immer bourgeois war und es weiterhin ist, gibt zwar keine Losung, sollte aber auch nicht unterschatzt werden. Ich habe HARTO in zwei Teilen konzipiert, wobei jeder Teil im Verhaltnis zum anderen sowohl irgendwie das gleiche als auch das Gegenteil darstellt. Der Grund fur diese Zweiteilung des Werkes ist leicht aus dem vorhin Gesagten abzuleiten. Als Vorarbeit zur Komposition habe ich versucht, die historische dichotomische Gestaltung des Materials besonders hervorzuheben, und zwar durch eine Potenzierung jener Aspekte, die diesen -zweigeteilten<< Charakter in sich tragen. Ich habe also den Zeitverlauf lediglich als eine Folge von Spannungs- und Entspannungs-Einheiten betrachtet; ich habe Tonhohen-Anordnungen verwendet, die ausschliesslich auf Symmetrie beruhen; ich habe zweiteilige Strukturen aufgebaut, deren Halften durch eine Pause mit konstantem Wert geteilt sind; ich habe - je nach den Moglichkeiten des Orchesters - den Gerausch- oder Tonanteil des Klanges ubertrieben. Dieser Gedankengang wurde im Hinblick darauf realisiert, neue Anwendungsmoglichkeiten zu finden, die fur das Ziel einer Musik als Erkenntnismittel von Nutzen sein konnen.(Manuel Hidalgo).

Composer's Notes: This piece, written during the winter months of 2000-2001, consists of one movement, Allegro con fuoco, in which an old score is revisited, raided and ravished by its composer. The earlier music had been written in the mid-fifties for a stage work Maratona di Danza and for its maker, the director Luchino Visconti. Elements from the older piece reappear on and off like shadows under the surface of new ones, like more or less vague memories, images of young people suffering pain and despair in their struggle for survival in a barbaric, pitiless modern world. My new composition is a kind of concerto for very large symphony orchestra, an etude on constant and often rapid musical changes of mood and colours, built on a variety of rhythmic figures, incessantly and brutally pushing the music ahead. Sometimes, it is as though voices are weeping, sometimes crying out loud with pain, with anxiety, under the cold hearted pressure of an overwhelming violence. Hans Werner Henze Commissioned on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of das neue werk, Hamburg. Premiered on 29th June 2001. Duration 15 minutes.

Over the years Janácek’s uvre has increasingly received the recognition it so richly merits and performances of his works are becoming more and more frequent. This development is, however, offset by a manuscript tradition so disorderly that some of Janácek’s works continue, as before, to be played in versions which are heavily adapted, corrupt or otherwise contrary to the composer’s intentions. Thus, a critical edition of Janácek’s music is indispensable for scholars and performers alike.

This editon presents an authentic printed text based on all available sources for each work. In addition to the musical text, each volume also contains a critical report (Czech / German), a rendition of deleted or rejected versions, and a comprehensive appendix of facsimiles.

Ludwig van Beethoven stellte seine 8. Sinfonie am 27. Februar der Offentlichkeit vor; zuvor erklangen anlasslich dieser Akademie das Schwesterwerk, die Sinfonie Nr. 7 A-Dur, sowie die Schlachtensinfonie 'Wellingtons Sieg oder die Schlacht bei Vittoria', die Beethoven einen seiner grossten Erfolge als Komponist bescherte. Zwar war die Aufnahme der Achten durch das Publikum nach den vorangegangenen Programmpunkten eher kuhl, und auch heute noch steht die Achte wie auch etwa die Pastorale im Schatten der ungeraden Sinfonien - doch gewinnt sie bei Horern mehr und mehr an Beliebtheit: die vielen unerwartenden Wendungen in diesem Werk liessen die Einschatzugn eines Paradebeispiels fur den Humor in der Musik entstehen.Herbert Schneider legt in seiner Werkeinfuhrung dar, wie die Achte entstand, erstmals aufgefuhrt, gestochen und schliesslich gedruckt, wie sie auf Zeitgenossen und spatere Generationen wirkte, und schildert dies in diesem Buch auf Grund wissenschaftlich begrundeter Fakten auf anschauliche Weise; analytische und die Interpretation betreffende Kommentare schliessen sich an. Anregungen zur weiteren Beschaftigung mit dieser popularen Sinfonie geben Literaturhinweise und eine Diskographie. Anhand der vollstandig wiedergegebenen Partitur kann der Leser den Notentext beim Horen verfolgen und die analytischen Kommentare nachvollziehen.
